Gene Chizik's doubters at Auburn return after hiatus; more Mailbag
Story Highlights
Despite winning the BCS title in 2010, Gene Chizik is receiving criticism at Auburn
Rich Rodriguez's, Todd Graham's success has hinged on inheriting right personnel
Plus: positive signs for Syracuse, thoughts on struggling Colorado and much more
|The Mandel Initiative Podcast
|Pac-12 Networks analyst Rick Neuheisel discusses the rise of his former team, UCLA, and previews USC-Stanford. Stewart and Mallory recap Week 2 developments.
Of all the columns I've penned for SI.com, no headline came back to haunt me more obviously than: "Chizik Has Zero Chance to Succeed." The first gloating e-mails from Auburn fans started trickling in about halfway through the 2010 season, picked up steadily once the Tigers won the SEC Championship and kept on coming for months after the BCS title game.
Obviously, I was wrong. Gene Chizik succeeded at Auburn. He won a national championship. However, the gist of that column was not an indictment of the man's coaching ability. (In fact, I wrote "Having observed him first-hand ... I believe Chizik is a pretty good football coach.) My point was, given how universally unpopular the hire was -- forever encapsulated by that heckler at the airport -- Auburn fans would never fully embrace him. "Every little misstep he incurs -- the first bad loss, the first questionable decision -- is only going to fuel the skeptics that much more," I wrote.
Most of those skeptics went into hiding for a year or two. But boy are they back now.
Is there anyone who actually still thinks Gene Chizik is a competent head coach? Aside from striking gold with Cam Newton and Nick Fairley, his records at Iowa State and Auburn are mediocre or worse. And looking at this year's schedule, it's hard to envision the Tigers not finishing with at least five losses again (probably more like six or seven). Does the national championship buy him extra years or would Auburn dump him if he has a losing season?
-- Keary, Lawrenceville, Ga.
When Gene Chizik was hired you questioned the hire, then he wins the national title, now the team looks bad. I know this is Year Four, but take away the Cam year and Auburn has been very mediocre. How soon will Chizik be on the hot seat and how much credit should Cam Newton and Tommy Tuberville (who recruited most of the other players) get for winning the title?
-- Forest Worgum, Montesano, Wash.
It's pretty amazing, really. Rarely does a coach get so little credit and gain such little mileage from winning a national championship. Before the season, the Sporting News ranked all 124 FBS coaches; Chizik, one of just six active coaches with a BCS championship ring, came in 36th. Even Larry Coker enjoyed a longer honeymoon at Miami before the Butch Davis NFL pipeline ran dry and angry fans started flying banners over the Orange Bowl. Chizik's skeptics have never let him live down that 5-19 run at Iowa State. They were hesitant to give him credit even during the Tigers 14-0 in campaign in 2010, often citing offensive coordinator Gus Malzahn as the real brains behind the operation. And of course, there is a segment of the public that will always believe Auburn "bought" that championship, proof be damned.
To answer Forest's question, Chizik certainly deserves credit for the 2010 run. He hired Malzahn. He recruited Newton. And though it seemed like it at times, Newton and Fairley did not win those 14 games by themselves. You could tell that team had incredible chemistry, and that starts with the head coach. But take away that one magical season and Chizik is 16-12 at Auburn, 7-10 in the SEC. Last year's slide back to 8-5 wasn't all that surprising given Auburn lost two-thirds of its starters from the year before and suffered mass attrition from the 2008 and '09 recruiting classes. But Tigers fans expected to see improvement this season. So far, all they've seen is two losses, most notably a horrific showing at Mississippi State last week.
Plenty of teams have dug themselves out of 0-2 holes and have gone on to have nice seasons. Remember, just two weeks ago the Tigers took a top-15 Clemson team to the wire. It may be that Mississippi State is just a lot better than we thought. However, just as I lauded Chizik for hiring Malzahn, I've previously questioned his puzzling choice of Scot Loeffler as his new offensive coordinator, and the first two games have not assuaged my concerns. Quarterback Kiehl Frazier looks completely miscast for Auburn's offense. He's completing 49 percent of his passes, has four interceptions and has not been a factor in the running game. That's a major problem.
Even if this season does turn into a full-on disaster, it's unrealistic to think Auburn would dump Chizik just two years after winning the national title. I think. Then again, this is the same school that ousted Terry Bowden halfway through a season after winning 10 games the year before, secretly interviewed Bobby Petrino while Tuberville was gainfully employed and eventually paid $5 million to buy out Tuberville following his first losing season in nine years. I guess we'll find out soon enough how many folks on The Plains are still All In.
That Auburn vs. Louisiana-Monroe game this week just got a bit more interesting.
-- Ben, Fort Collins, Colo.
Indeed. Maybe Kolton Browning can play all-time quarterback.
With the announcement that Notre Dame is joining the ACC and will be required to play five ACC teams in football every year, don't you think this will hurt recruiting? This move could eliminate traditionally annual games with Michigan, Purdue, Michigan State and take away from Notre Dame's Midwest presence, where most of its recruits are from to begin with. Even though they are well known across the country, they still hit the Midwest recruiting trail pretty hard.
-- Shawn, Lima, Ohio
What a treat we have for you this week. A bonus question I scrambled to add after the Mailbag had already been published!
I suppose that's a risk, but look at this way: It's not like the current approach was working wonders. While Notre Dame's move was based primarily on other factors -- concerns about future scheduling, access to the ACC's bowl lineup and the deterioration of Big East basketball -- there's the possibility this could actually help in recruiting. It's a tall task trying to beat Ohio State and Michigan head-to-head for Midwest kids. Just last year, four-star offensive lineman Taylor Decker flipped from Notre Dame to Ohio State upon Urban Meyer's hire. However, Notre Dame's allure remains as strong, if not stronger, on the East Coast, where there's fewer competing powerhouses. Theoretically, the Irish will now play in that area more often. Even better, the Irish will now play regular games in the Southeast, by far the most important recruiting region in the country. While Notre Dame isn't likely to beat LSU or Alabama for a kid in those schools' backyards, it could attract interest from prospects open to leaving the region.
Keep in mind, the ACC only became a realistic option for Notre Dame within the past 12 months. Previously the league was adamant about insisting on full membership. For years, we'd always assumed if the school ever joined a new conference, it would be the Big Ten, but both parties seemed to sour on that notion during the recent realignment wave. Then the Big 12 made a push, but that never seemed a logical fit. This move makes more sense because Notre Dame has a lot more in common with schools like Boston College, Virginia and Duke than it does with Texas and Oklahoma or Ohio State and Michigan. It's always been a virtual East Coast school that happens to be in Indiana. And if and when Notre Dame finally decides take the conference plunge in football, it has a much better chance of competing for championships in the ACC than it would in those other leagues.
I think I woke up with a hangover... I'm a bit disoriented from watching the Big Ten yesterday. What is going on with the conference?
-- Eric, Hoboken, N.J.
Simple answer: A bunch of teams took on challenging nonconference opponents, all on the same day -- and almost all of them lost. Kudos to Northwestern for bucking the trend against Vanderbilt, but that was the highlight of a day in which the Big Ten managed to collectively go 6-6. The entire conference just received a bid to the Little Caesars Bowl.
Nearly all the teams that went belly up had seemingly evident concerns entering the season, but we either chose to ignore or downplay them. Wisconsin lost six assistant coaches and an opening-day NFL starting quarterback in Russell Wilson. Danny O'Brien may be a fellow ACC transfer, but he looked like the farthest thing from Wilson against Oregon State. And Bielema's new staff was apparently enough of a problem to merit firing offensive line coach Mike Markuson two games into the season. Meanwhile, Nebraska's defense regressed significantly last season and lost its coordinator (Carl Pelini) and three best players (Lavonte David, Jared Crick and Alfonzo Dennard). We assumed Bo Pelini would fix it. We assumed wrong. And Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz lost the only offensive coordinator he's ever had and about 27 running backs; the Hawkeyes have scored 24 points in two games. The list goes on.
Many of these teams will rebound, but so far they've done nothing but validate my preseason belief that Michigan State is the class of the conference. The Spartans have their own unanswered concern (their passing game) and their own nonconference test this week (Notre Dame), but they may well be the conference's lone hope of producing an elite team this season. Now I know what you're going to say. What about 2-0 Indiana? Unfortunately, the Hoosiers lost starting quarterback Tre Roberson for the season against UMass. The Big Ten can't even seem to win without losing.

Back under the stewardship of Jose Mourinho, the Blues, who have won European trophies in the past two seasons, will be hoping to get off to a winning start in front of our own supporters, so come along and get behind the team.
The two sides shared seven goals over the course of our two-legged Europa League semi-final last season, with the Blues coming out on top on both occasions, winning 2-1 in Basel and 3-1 back at the Bridge.
It's been an impressive start to the season so far, so get down to SW6 and watch Champions League football return to Stamford Bridge.

The SEC East race is making for strange bedfellows.
Georgia quarterback Aaron Murray is no Gators fan, but this week he will be. Next week, not so much again.
Murray knows for his team to have a chance to win the SEC East No. 2 Florida (6-0, 5-0 SEC) needs to handle South Carolina (6-1, 4-1) in the Swamp. Georgia (5-1, 3-1) then would need to defeat Florida next weekend in Jacksonville to assume the driver's seat in the East.
"I think everyone has a free pass as a Georgia fan to root for them," Murray said of the Gators. "I'm not saying deck out in Florida gear but definitely we would be a little happier if they came out with a victory on Saturday."
Steve Spurrier's Gamecocks routed Murray's Bulldogs 35-7 on Oct. 6, and with a win Saturday would hold the head-to-head tiebreaker over Georgia, which meets 27 1/2-point underdog Kentucky (1-6. 0-4) this weekend. To win the East, the Bulldogs then would need to beat the Gators and hope for a major slip-up by South Carolina at home Nov. 10 against Arkansas (2-4, 2-2).
While Spurrier views beating Florida, his alma mater, as a necessary evil, the Head Ball Coach loves nothing more than beating Georgia. Spurrier has never forgotten how the Bulldogs ruined his magical, 1966 Heisman-winning season with a 27-10 win of the 7-0 Gators.
A win on Saturday would give Spurrier a chance to stick it to Georgia again in the span of two weeks.

Feeds really smooth off the end of the spool. I use a 1" dowel and a rubber cane tip pushed snug against the spool to hold it in place. It's a lot of wire and oddly enough (no offense Stew Mac) a good deal. A lot of wire suppliers stop at 40awg and I've seen others cost more with shipping included
Well I've used this wire before on winding single coils. It worked so well that I went on to try my hand at Humbucker winding using the 43AWG. Well I'm back using the 42 until I get better. It is stronger and easier to use than the 43.
I bought this and it is what it is. However, like everything else it cost twice as much as it should. In a pinch buy this. If you have some time, there are other places that are much cheaper.
Good quality, right amount, Easy to use. Follow Stew-Mac advice and you'll wind perfect pick-ups
Good sounding wire that has it's own character. I like the 43 gauge spool because I don't use a lot of it and it comes in a convenient size so you don't have to buy a 5 lb spool.

Proven Ways To Generate Sales Leads
Originally published: 09.01.07 by Jackie Rainwater
Focus on revenue all year.
As I write this column from my home near Atlanta, we continue to have record-high temperatures. We have seen triple-digit temperatures daily during this three-week-long "heat wave," and local weather forecasters (Those fortunate prognosticators who are well compensated for being wrong most of the time.) say no end is in sight.
Presently, local hvac contractors with any sort of reasonable market presence and/or customer base are "huntin' over a baited field," as we say down South. As I often have said, "100 degrees Fahrenheit makes marketing and sales geniuses of most hvac contractors."
Weather-driven sales certainly are a nice windfall when they happen. However, depending on temperature extremes to grow a viable hvac retail business simply doesn't work for the long haul. In order to grow and prosper, the business must generate sufficient valid sales leads on a year-round basis.
At Peachtree Heating and Air Conditioning, the retail business I operated in Atlanta from 1990 until 2002, we employed eight residential comfort consultants (salespeople). We carefully tracked and recorded the sources and results of each sales lead. Our service technicians generated about 80% of the leads while performing diagnostic and repair or maintenance calls on our service- agreement customer base of more than 18,500.
Here's a summary of the average annual sales leads and sales data we recorded for the six- year period of 1996 through 2001:
1. Technician-generated leads (173 per service technician) ................10,3801
2. Sales leads from phone-directory display advertising.................................. 6382
3. Referrals from customers.........................2553
4. Newspaper, radio, television , door hangers, and Web site ....................2494
Total annual average leads........11,5225
(1) Our 60 technicians averaged 1,150 (all category) service calls annually. We trained technicians to present information regarding the benefits of hvac equipment upgrades and accessories when appropriate for the customer. Consequently, around 15% of those service calls resulted in sales leads. We paid incentives to technicians when those leads became sales.
(2) About 10% of all sales leads and 20% of our service calls came from our phone-directory ads.
(3) About 5% of total sales leads.
(4) About 5% of total sales leads.
(5) 54% of all leads were for accessories and IAQ services (air cleaners, humidifiers, programmable thermostats, CO detectors, duct cleaning, etc.) We assigned these leads to inside sales personnel for follow-up. Forty-six percent of the leads were for replacement or add-on hvac equipment and were assigned to our comfort consultants.
From 1990 through 1995, we carefully experimented with various forms of marketing and advertising in order to determine the best use of our resources. Beginning in 1996 (as a result of the information we had gathered from 1990 through 1995), we spent about 50% of our advertising budget on direct-mail tune up postcards. We targeted homes in our primary service area during the spring and early summer, and again in the fall and early winter. Our technicians converted about 75% of the tune-up calls to service-agreement customers. In addition to growing our important service-agreement customer base (the source of 80% of our sales leads), 15% of the tune-up calls we performed also resulted in technician- generated sales leads.
Growing a large and loyal service-agreement customer base while constantly training and rewarding your technicians for "informing and educating" customers regarding solutions for their hvac and IAQ concerns is the surest and most cost-effective way to grow your retail business. It is also by far the most efficient and effective method I have found for producing sales leads during mild weather and/or a poor economy.

Brook Theater
3307 S. Peoria Avenue,
No one has favorited this theater yet
The Brook Theater, opened in 1945, is located in the Brookside District and was designed by William Henry Cameron Calderwood. The 1990's renovation was by Fritz Baily. The theater is now home of the Brook Restaurant and Bar.
Recent comments (view all 10 comments)
This site lists the opening date as 1945 and has a slightly different address. Also contains a small postcard:
View link
The address should be 3307 South Peoria Avenue. The restaurant that is located there today is called Brookside Club. This theater was built in 1945 and the architect was William Henry Cameron . Prior to the restaurant, the building was converted into a bank. There is a 1997 article with photos here. Photos are on the second page.
Both the BROOK and DELMAN belonged to the powerful LOEW'S Theater Circuit.
For detailed information on Tulsa theatre architects (and others) look into this interesting site;
Scroll through this creative web site for recent BROOK pictures -
This link has an opening day newspaper photo of the Brook Theater. The caption claims that the Brook had 700 seats at that time.
Roadside Oklahoma gives colorful photographs of the former Loew's Brook Theatre, Tulsa.
The August 2010 issue of "Signs of the Times" features a picture of the current Brook Theater with the following caption: "When the Brook opened as a theater in 1949, it featured "Father Was a Fullback," which starred Fred MacMurray. The theater features one of Tulsa's few marquee signs that includes channel-block, double-tube letters; channel-script, sign-tube letters; and neon bandings. The letterbox contains glass panels. The Wally Werr Sign Co. manufacturered the originla sign. The theater building now houses a restaurant.
Here is yet another web page with photos of the Brook Theatre. The accompanying text says that the Brook served as the home of the American Theatre Company (Tulsa's leading theatre group) for fifteen years before being converted into a restaurant. ATC's web site says the Brook became the company's second stage in 1979, so fifteen years would be just about right if the restaurant conversion took place in the mid-1990s.

text: We're gaga for granola. And the recipe that Teri Lyn Fisher and Jenny Park (the ladies behind Spoon Fork Bacon) whipped up especially for us really hits the spot. Sweetened with maple syrup, the concoction's mix of dried fruits and shredded coconut give it a summery kick. It's the best excuse to wake and bake. Coconut-Maple Granola Makes five to six cups Ingredients 2 c. old-fashioned rolled oats 2/3 c. shredded coconut 1/3 c. sliced almonds, lightly crushed 1/3 c. pecans, chopped 1/3 c. walnuts, chopped 3 tbsp. sunflower seeds 3 tbsp. golden flax seeds ½ c. pure maple syrup ¼ c. coconut oil ¼ c. (unsulphured) dried apricots, chopped ¼ c. (unsulphured) dried cranberries, chopped 1. Preheat oven to 350°. Toss together first seven ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Add maple syrup and oil and fold together until evenly coated. Spread mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake 30-40 minutes, stirring every 10-15 minutes. 2. Remove from oven and transfer onto another parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle dried fruit over granola and stir. Allow mixture to cool completely. Serve or store.

Our beloved grandfather, Poppy Sol, started this business in an open-air market. Three generations later, we're still bringing smiles to our customers' faces.
— Virginia, San Bernardino, Ca. November 3, 2013
"I just opened up my box of goodies, the hazelnuts were so fresh you'd think that they had just been picked. The dried apricots and dates were fresh and flavorful. They even send me a sample of Turkish figs. I also order sanding sugar for my holiday baking and the price was to good to pass up. Sanding sugars look, feel, and taste like any high quality name brands out there. I'm hooked and will order more goodies soon."

What are Eye Tics?
Eye tics are rapid, repeated and involuntary movements of various muscles surrounding the eye. These excessive motor movements may vary from mild and barely noticeable, to more severe cases where they may actually begin to interfere with normal visual functioning, and may affect other areas of life such as self-confidence.
Eye tics must be differentiated from eye twitches which are often less noticeable and generally affect only a small bundle of muscle fibers, as opposed to the whole muscle which is characteristic of an eye tic.

Beaver JobNet is OSU Career Services' online career management system and is your online connection to OSU students and alumni. Students can apply to your job in the way that best meets the department's needs. List part-time jobs for students while they are in school, and summer full or part-time jobs and internships.
OSU is pleased to offer you access to this online system so that you can reach our students with jobs and internships and practica.
OSU Career Services offers you an easy and simplified way to connect to students interested in finding that perfect job or internship. For more information regarding internships please see our Internship Guide to assist you in establishing criteria for a successful internship. We also have an extensive website just about internships!
Register or login to post jobs/internships at OSU
Please think of Beaver JobNet job posting designations as limiting rather than inclusive.
For instance, if you choose only "Bachelors" from the list of degree levels, ONLY students pursuing a Bachelors degree can apply to your schedule.
This does NOT include Masters or Doctoral candidates who have Bachelors degrees as well, but have marked themselves in our system as a Masters or Doctoral candidate.
In the same vein, we highly encourage that you select both "Alumnus" and "Current Students" under Class Level so as not to limit your candidate pool.
Set a graduation end date if you need someone to fill the position by a certain date, but do not set a graduation start date, so that alumni may also apply.
We recommend you are as inclusive as possible when setting your job posting parameters so that you do not severely limit your candidate pool. You may always choose not to invite a candidate to interview who does not have attractive qualifications.
Severe restrictions may prevent a candidate with excellent qualifications from applying however.
The Career Center expects all employers recruiting our students to abide by NACE Link User Agreement and Beaver JobNet Privacy Policy

Acts of the Apostles 11:19-26.
Those who had been scattered by the persecution that arose because of Stephen went as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to no one but Jews.
There were some Cypriots and Cyrenians among them, however, who came to Antioch and began to speak to the Greeks as well, proclaiming the Lord Jesus.
The hand of the Lord was with them and a great number who believed turned to the Lord. The news about them reached the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas (to go) to Antioch.
When he arrived and saw the grace of God, he rejoiced and encouraged them all to remain faithful to the Lord in firmness of heart, for he was a good man, filled with the holy Spirit and faith. And a large number of people was added to the Lord.
Then he went to Tarsus to look for Saul, and when he had found him he brought him to Antioch. For a whole year they met with the church and taught a large number of people, and it was in Antioch that the disciples were first called Christians.
Psalms 87(86):1-3.4-5.6-7.
A psalm of the Korahites. A song.
The LORD loves the city founded on holy mountains,
Loves the gates of Zion more than any dwelling in Jacob.
Glorious things are said of you, O city of God! Selah
From Babylon and Egypt I count those who acknowledge the LORD.
Philistia, Ethiopia, Tyre, of them it can be said:
"This one was born there."
But of Zion it must be said:
"They all were born here."
The Most High confirms this;
the Lord notes in the register of the peoples:
"This one was born here." Selah
So all sing in their festive dance:
"Within you is my true home."
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 10:22-30.
The feast of the Dedication was taking place in Jerusalem. It was winter.And Jesus walked about in the temple area on the Portico of Solomon.
So the Jews gathered around him and said to him, "How long are you going to keep us in suspense? If you are the Messiah, tell us plainly."
Jesus answered them, "I told you and you do not believe. The works I do in my Father's name testify to me.
But you do not believe, because you are not among my sheep. My sheep hear my voice; I know them, and they follow me.
